How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

About our bath resealing in Malvern

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Signs you need bath resealing in Malvern

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions from Malvern

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Resealing in Malvern: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Malvern. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What affects the price in Malvern

  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
